The cafe outside the National University of Science and Technology.
There was a cold wind blowing outside and it was raining.
In the room, Jiang Wei was pouring tea for Ning Youguang. Every move he made was very elegant and showed traces of deliberate practice.
"How does it feel to stay in school and become a teacher after graduation?" she asked.
"It's pretty good." Ning Youguang said, "It's the state I like."
Jiang Wei smiled softly, with a complicated look on his face, "I really envy girls like you who are born well and can always do what you like."
Ning Youguang picked up the tea cup and took a sip gently, "The tea you make is so delicious."
The confusion on Jiang Wei's face disappeared and he smiled, "Drink more if you like. I obtained the tea master qualification certificate last year."
Ning Youguang exclaimed, "Awesome, no wonder the tea brewed is so delicious."
"What a great thing, it's all necessary for work." Jiang Wei sighed lightly.
After a while, she continued, "Oh, you don't know what I do now, do you?"
Ning Youguang shook his head slowly.
Jiang Wei smiled and said, "I am an agent at Kaixin Entertainment."
"Oh, really?" Ning Youguang said with surprise, "You are so powerful now!"
Coming from a family background, Ning Youguang certainly knew that "Happy Entertainment" was a famous celebrity management company with many popular artists under its umbrella.
"It's nothing great, I just got a job with a better salary." Although he said modestly, Ning Youguang could clearly feel that Jiang Wei was very proud when talking about his job.
"How did you get into this business?" Sensing her thoughts, Ning Youguang continued to ask on this topic.
"I have a sister from my hometown who works as an agent at Kaixin Entertainment. After I graduated from college, she introduced me to their company as an agent assistant, and that's how I ended up working." Jiang Wei said with a smile, "I'm pretty lucky.
Within a year or two, I started to lead artists independently."
"I heard that you need to have strong abilities to be an agent." Ning Youguang continued to praise, "You must have worked very hard to become an independent agent so quickly."
"It's a lot of hard work." Jiang Wei's face with exquisite makeup showed pleasure and a hint of astringency, "It was not easy at the beginning, but it's much better now."
"No job is easy at the beginning." Ning Youguang said, "I stayed in school at that time, and I was questioned for a long time because of my academic qualifications. What can I do? Just endure it, work hard, and just rely on it.
I have the energy to admit defeat and endure until I show them my strength and achieve results. Then they will naturally know whether I am qualified for this job and whether I have obtained the qualification to stay in school through the background."
After Ning Youguang said these words, Jiang Wei softened a little and got closer to her, "Yes, that's it. When I first joined the company, I was often scolded, both by the boss and by the artists.
, and was scolded by partners.”
"I remember one winter, an artist I was leading had a large-scale event that needed to be photographed. The photographer we hired was not available at the time, so the artist asked me to take pictures for her. I didn't know how to take pictures at that time, so I also followed him.
She said that I was not good at taking pictures, but she told me to take them, and it turned out really bad when I took them, so she started scolding me for nearly an hour. I ignored her and didn't dare to talk back."
"She just said to me, 'Can you understand people's words? If you can't understand people's words, get off the car.' It was very cold in the early morning in the winter in Beijing at that time, so I was kicked out of the car by her."
"I was reluctant to take a taxi because I had no money. I also wanted to make myself remember it, so I waited for a night bus. I waited for a long time and it was very cold."
"While waiting for the bus, I thought, no matter what, I must buy a car in the future, so that if this happens again, I can tell her, I don't want to take your car, I have a car...
...After this incident, I worked even harder. Now the artists I lead are getting better and better, and people in the company are gradually becoming more and more polite to me."
Having said this, Jiang Wei habitually opened his bag, took out a pack of cigarettes, took one out and lit it.
After she took two puffs and saw Ning Youguang's surprised face across from her through the smoke, she suddenly woke up and said in a daze, "Sorry, I'm used to it."
She hurriedly took an ashtray from the next table and put her cigarette in it.
The expression on Ning Youguang's face quickly returned to calm, "Do you usually have to stay up late?"
Her question eased Jiang Wei's embarrassment.
She smiled weakly and said, "I don't know if you know about our industry. Our work is usually very stressful. Sometimes the day and night are reversed. When everyone gets together, they smoke to relieve their boredom. Sometimes they smoke
It will also become a way of chatting. I couldn't adapt to this at first because the environment I grew up in was that girls were not allowed to smoke..."
"But now you see, I have also learned to smoke. Sometimes I can't help but take a cigarette to smoke while talking. Many girls around me smoke, so I don't think it matters, even smoking.
Well, I think it’s a way to get closer to this circle.”
Ning Youguang picked up the teapot and refilled Jiang Wei's tea cup, "If you want to smoke, you can smoke, I don't mind."
"I don't smoke anymore." Jiang Wei smiled bitterly, "I'm not a big smoker, but sometimes I can't help but smoke when I'm talking."
Ning Youguang smiled and said nothing.
After Jiang Wei was silent for a while, he took out a bank card from his bag and gently pushed it in front of Ning Youguang.
Ning Youguang was stunned when he looked at the bank card she took over, "This is it?"
Jiang Wei said with a complex expression, "This is what I owe you for four years of college tuition and living expenses."
Ning Youguang waited for a long time before he remembered that he had sponsored Jiang Wei to go to school. "Do you know that I sponsored you to go to school?"
Jiang Wei nodded, "When I was a junior in college, I once went to our class teacher's office to hand in information, and I accidentally discovered that you were the one who had been funding my schooling."
Ning Youguang held his forehead and laughed, "Is this why you gradually alienated me one day during your junior year?"
"Yes." Jiang Wei raised his hand to cover his nose and took a deep breath. "I was in a very complicated mood at the time. I didn't know how to face you."
She paused slightly and then continued, "I was originally very grateful to the person who sponsored me to go to school, and I silently decided that when I graduate, I will work hard and repay the kind people who sponsored me. But when I knew that the person who sponsored me to go to school
After I became you, my heart became very complicated. In fact, I knew in my heart that I should thank you, but I didn’t want to thank you, and even felt very angry..." 1314
